Hi there -I lost a son 6 Months ago. I did not go out in the sun this weekend as A was a son worshiper . I just kind of feel guilty and it is really miserable. I lost another son 3 months ago so it feels as if the best thing to do is nothing . H hopefully time will help us to live a bit again - love to you J
I honestly think unless one has experienced the loss of a child, one cannot, though many do their best and try really understand.
I empathise with how you are feeling. So often it’s the little individualities of that very special person that we miss the most… their voice, their smile, their laughter their hugs … all those things that no one can ever replace.
When a child dies, a part of us dies too and that’s what makes it so hard. We know no matter how hard we try, we can never be fully complete again. All we can do is be thankful for the time we enjoyed with that special person in our life and make the best we can of what we have and maybe, in time, in some small way, we can help someone else. x

Yes Jenna , I know grief like I never imagined.
My son died 7 months ago.
I missed him so very much and nothing can be the same, but I keep going because that is what he would expect.
I know that one day I will be with him again, until then, I will do the best I can,knowing that there will be more tears and seemingly unbearable days. I hope you too will, in time find the stre gth to do.
Thank you and bless you for your kind and thoughtful words . I will do my best to honour them and keep their memories alive . Xxx

Hello Welshie - I do not know how I manage.When jonny died only a few weeks after Aid I absolutely could not take it in I still do not know whether it has really sunk in , 6 months ago I had three sons now I have one He has lost his family and I suppose we help each other out as the boys would have wa nted us to do. Not looking too far into the future and we talk about them a lot even if it hurts . Thanks for your considerate post J x
